(Jonah 1:1–3)
1This is the burden against Nineveh, the book of the vision of Nahum the Elkoshite:
2The LORD is a jealous and avenging God;
3The LORD is slow to anger
4He rebukes the sea and dries it up;
5The mountains quake before Him,
6Who can withstand His indignation?
7The LORD is good,
8But with an overwhelming flood
9Whatever you plot against the LORD,
10For they will be entangled as with thorns
11From you, O Nineveh, comes forth
12This is what the LORD says:
13For I will now break their yoke from your neck
14The LORD has issued a command concerning you, O Nineveh:
15Look to the mountains—
2The LORD is a jealous and avenging God;
3The LORD is slow to anger
4He rebukes the sea and dries it up;
5The mountains quake before Him,
6Who can withstand His indignation?
7The LORD is good,
8But with an overwhelming flood
9Whatever you plot against the LORD,
10For they will be entangled as with thorns
11From you, O Nineveh, comes forth
12This is what the LORD says:
13For I will now break their yoke from your neck
14The LORD has issued a command concerning you, O Nineveh:
15Look to the mountains—
